1000th Driver at Pertemps Driving Academy

Tuesday 18 April 2017

Tom Williams is the 1000th Driver to receive funded training through Pertemps. Tom tells us about his experiences with the Pertemps Driving Academy…

"Before driving I worked in a factory as a Production Operative. I wanted a career change and after a friend recommended Pertemps I headed over to their Gloucester branch to ask about being a Large Goods Vehicle (LGV) Driver. I was really happy when Toby Rudge, the Senior Consultant, informed me about the brilliant training on offer. "

"I passed my LGV Category C test with the Pertemps Driving Academy before attending further training to pass my LGV Category C+E test. It was then I found out I was the 1000th Driver to attend the Pertemps Driving Academy. It’s amazing that they have helped so many people into a driving career and I know they’ll carry on doing so for years to come."

"Pertemps offered ongoing training and support to ease me into my new career. This support doesn’t stop after you have passed your test either - you’re always welcome back to the Driving Academy. As a new driver it’s great to know you have support. For instance, if you’re unsure of anything the Pertemps Driver Training team are more than happy to help as they want you to be confident at the wheel. "

"Now I have an office with a view which is different every day, I’m going to different parts of the country and meeting new people all the time. The training I’ve had has given me the freedom to do a job I love and I can’t thank the Trainers at the Academy enough. If you’re thinking of going into a driving career, pick up the phone and call Pertemps!"
